The "new" Caldwell Diner re-opened on the morning of Saturday, April 9, 2011 after an accidental fire closed the popular restaurant in August 2010. Owners Penny and Gus Apostolopoulos were on hand to welcome customers to the completely restored restaurant. The Caldwell Diner is an old-style, family diner with a coffee counter and booth seating. Pancakes, French toast and burgers are favorites.

A classic NJ Diner. The hosts and servers have always been very friendly and helpful when we eat in and when we get take out. The menu is, of course, huge and portions are generous. Their prices seem to be about the same as other local diners.
Maybe more importantly, they make fantastic crispy bacon!

Went there for breakfast and there was a piece of a sponge in our potatoes I will never go back again

Not bad for a quick meal, but remember, it's a diner. You aren't going there to indulge on fine cuisine. Prices are a little high for such a small establishment that doesn't offer anything spectacular.

Food is mediocre. Burgers are dry. Prices are little higher than expected. Management Customer Service Skills simply suck. AM manager doesn't tolerate any kids and makes sure you and your little ones know that. PM manager simply doesn't care when waiter instead of working with you chats with her boyfriend without paying any attention to anybody else for good 10 minutes... Owner pays much more attention to the flowers outside (which are beautiful) then to anybody there as he doesn't think that it is necessary to greet you back whenever you are trying to greet them outside the restaraunt...

Bang for my bucks! Totally worth it. Fresh food, fast service, great atmosphere. Small things -Juicy chicken, pasta not overcooked - make such a difference for diner food.
